Coca-Cola's top secret recipe.



A website claims to have uncovered Coca-Cola's top secret recipe.





The ingredients of the drink, created by John Pemberton, a
medicinal pharmacist in 1886, have always been a mystery.



However, Thisamericanlife.org claims to have discovered a list in a photograph
in a newspaper article giving the ingredients and exact quantities to make the
drink.



The Feb 8 1979 edition of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution has a photo of
someone holding open a book with a recipe claimed to be an exact replica of
Pemberton's.



The recipe reportedly contains the exact measures of all the different oils
needed for Coca Cola's secret ingredient, Merchandise 7X.



Despite making up only one per cent of the drink's
total formula, Merchandise 7X is thought to give the popular soft drink its
unique taste.








Fluid extract of Coca 3 drams USP



Citric acid 3 oz



Caffeine 1oz



Sugar 30 (it is unclear from the markings what quantity is required)



Water 2.5 gal



Lime juice 2 pints 1 qrt



Vanilla 1oz



Caramel 1.5oz or more to colour



7X flavour (use 2oz of flavour
to 5 gals syrup):



Alcohol 8oz



Orange oil 20 drops



Lemon oil 30 drops



Nutmeg oil 10 drops



Coriander 5 drops



Neroli 10 drops



Cinnamon 10 drops
